Previous schools called "Sale High School"

edit

I came to this page while searching for information on Sale High School for Boys, attended by playwright Robert Bolt. The current co-educational Sale High School is completely unrelated to the old one, being, as pointed out in the first comment on this page, the successor to "Knocker Road" Secondary Modern School. On closer inspection of this page, I see that John Andrews, named as a Sale High alumnus, would have attended the old Sale High for Boys in the 1940s, unless he was one of the first pupils at the Norris Road Secondary Mod.

However, when I attempted to add a note mentioning the existence of the two earlier schools called "Sale High School" (the Boys' school and the corresponding Girls' school on a separate site) and the risk of confusion with the current establishment, it was removed by an experienced editor. I don't think the older schools merit an article of their own, so can somebody please suggest an acceptably Wikipedian way to stop the confusion of old and new.90.246.91.194 (talk) 12:06, 24 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Following an Editor Assistance consultation, I have added a short section on the older schools, with references. Although this does not contain all the information from my original note, I feel it would not be possible to add more without original research or, at the very least, synthesis. 90.246.91.194 (talk) 16:03, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
